Optimization of Contact Edge Profile for Minimizing Contact Pressure in a Press-fitted Shaft

In the shrink or press-fitted shafts such as railway axles, the rotor of a steam turbine or coupling, a high-stress concentration takes place in the close of contact edge due to relative slip between shaft and boss in a press-fitted shaft and this is a major cause of fatigue failure of the shaft. Th...
